Children of the Corn (1984) | Killer Kids, Wasted Potential

Have you ever watched a movie you were excited for but felt disappointed in some way? Were you left wondering why it wasn't better? This is the podcast that has the answers! We review films that were highly anticipated, but were for a variety of reasons either disappointing, underachieving, or misunderstood, and ramble about why they weren't better. This is a podcast for film nerds and for anyone who enjoys some lighthearted, semi-serious, in-depth discussion.
